The Cottage was essentially home from home in terms of an attractive, comfortable living/dining space and a well equipped kitchen. The bedrooms had lots of storage, the beds were comfortable. The whole stay at Llysfaen was peaceful, relaxing, enjoyable in a beautiful location which has to be experienced to be appreciated. If you get a chance to Read morego on the Tractor Run dont miss it!

The kids were able to lamb a ewe (highlight of our time here!) and help with hay and water, gave a lamb some milk via bottle, transporting sheep to the field in both the tractor and the quad bike. The family were very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed oRead moreur visit to local attractions - Dan -Yr -Ogof Caves and also organised some horse trekking at Cantref (Animal Park and Riding Centre). This is also the home of Cascave Gin and we have bought some to share with family. Hide

Really clean, comfortable beds, friendly owners and super views. The setting was in a quiet village far from noise and bustle of urban life. I am feeling a bit homesick for this lovely cottage.
